tion, an air-tight non.conducting wall,
and plenty Of ventilation above over
sufficient non-conducting covering. The
ice is packed in house Of this kind on
the earth floor upon a foot of sawdust; no
sawdust is required around the ice, but
this is packed close to the wall and all
spaces filled with ice dust. A covering
two feet deep Of sawdust is placed over

Of the ice, and then drain pipe should
be made with an % in it to prevent air

Evidence of corruption In the murder
case against John Arensdorf at Sioux
City comes speedily and with overwhelm-
ing force, Mr. o. O'Cennell, the one juror
who stood for conviction stating that
the defence knew before the case was
closed that eleven of the jury would vote
for aoquittal and that the defence en-
deavored to purchase his vote for the
acquittai of Arensdorf. After the Jury
was discharged newspaper reporter
had an interview with Mr.. O'Connell and
the following conversation ensued:
Representative you any idea of how
the jury stood before the case was sub
mltted I"
O'Connell--"I was given to under-
stand before the case closed that the de,
fence knew the jury would stand eleven
to one for acquittal, and that held the
key to the situation"
Reporter did you know that?"
O,Connell Gndlgnately) III hadn't
expressed my opinion one way or the
other. They must have got their inform
alton from other sources; perhaps they
polled the jury in advance"
Reporter-"Mr. Webster told Judge
Lewis that you must have been bought
by the prosecution. What have you to
say to tbat?"
O'Connelle-"I have been careful TO
avoid even speaking to the Judge or the
states attorney during the trial; / OIL
| ways passed them without 30 much as
saluting them"
Reporter-"Wouldn't there be more
likelihood of bribery on the other side?"
O'Oonnell-"I don't want to implicate
any one"
Reporter you offered bribe2"
O'Oonnell-"I was asked to name my
price,
Reporter-"Are you willing to say for
publication that you were asked to name
your price?
| O'Connell -"I am"
Reporter-"Was that offer made in be.
half of the prosecution or the defence? r
O'Connell--"I was in behalf of the
| defence"
Reporter--"Who made that offer?"
O'Connell--"I decline to say at pres
eEt, as do not wish to get him into
trouble"
This is straight forward statement o.
an attempt to bribs Juror. The infer.
ence from this transaction is that bribery
was effected with some of the jurors, al
it seemed to be we'll established in the
minds of the defence that only one jurol
was necessary to secure the acquittal o
Arensdorf. They knew that which they
had no right to know-that eleven mem
